Good reminder! Thanks!
Do the worms crawl up chair?😊
I noticed you don’t plant okra. Why not ? I’m trying to find new plants to grow something I will eat.
I got my tote & holes drilled, gathered sticks & last year’s debris from the flower beds and got a bucket of kitchen scraps & paper towels (used) for the tote. Going to be cold tonight,and calling for snow flakes in morning but good news is in a couple days will be 80, that’s Indiana weather!! PS: at 3pm my first Hummingbird flew in, glad I had my feeder up.
Mom, rest her soul, always buried her kitchen scraps in the back yard garden. Worms were always available for weekend fishing trips. Everything she planted grew beautifully. Trust Robbie. She knows what she's talking about.
I've heard you mention grow bags in a few recent videos but I've never seen them in your garden. Have you done the compost in place with those before?
Yesterday it was time to pull out some old veggies and plant new stuff. After harvesting the rest and deciding to use the soil in a different pot I saw worms and thought of you "don't ask "how" they got there but why". 😀
Fantastic!
Hi Robbie, thank you for educating us. I have a question. …is it ok to put a few red wriggler worms in. I have a worm farm so I have them in abundance. Ive just done the preliminary work to set up 3 tubs this weekend. Yay…thank you from Sue (Australia )
Maybe it's because of where I live, but I have never ever seen an earthworm crawling up the side of anything. Now tat I have everything up off the ground I can't find any, even where I used to find them when I had pots on the ground. I will buy some, but I want the right worms. Are they just called " earthworms? Thanks for any help! Happy gardening!
Smorgasbord..love it 😍
I now have friends giving me their kitchen scraps 😂
And we definitely have an increase in worms which my youngest is very interested in 😆
I adore you!!! Anyone I mention you to knows who you are all the way in Chambersburg Pennsylvania. We love you whether it's your gardens or hummingbirds.
I did the pots in my tote today I’ll make more as I find containers with lids thank you for teaching me 👍🏻🙏🏻❤️🍅🫑🌱🌶
Do you really need to make such an unpleasant face. Do you need to be so dramatic! Gardening should be a pleasant experience
I look forward to every video you put out. We have another freeze coming so I won't be starting this quite yet even though hubs is getting tired of the kitchen scraps I have in the freezer. LOL
You always give such good advice and never patronising 👍❤️
I now make ‘veggie rolls’ every time. I’m trying you 2 pot compost system this year 👍
Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.
❤️❤️❤️
My soil garden is all compost soil and boy there are hundreds of worms in my garden.
I once hung my wet gardening gloves on a metal frame (used to be grills on windows) that was adjacent to my Worm Bins. The nastiest surprise I got when I put them on the next day!
Yes Worm crawls up to the unlikeliest places if there's any incentive for them. The gloves I hung was apparently very wet due to a heavy rain the night before. I've never repeated the same mistake ever again.
Love your videos..you are definitely my kind of friend.
I couldn't get potting soil so I had to get garden soil. I follow all of your instructions for the totes except for adding the garden soil on top. I hope that will work!
When it's really Hot out
Staying Nice and Cool Tip…
Get a Hand Towel, get it nice and wet, then wrap it around your neck ….you will be so much more comfortable in the Heat.
I live in Utah, Works great at even 100 Degrees.
Your Attire…. Just like mine for the most part.
You Go Woman 👩
Your Wonderful Thank You 😊 🙏 💕
Robbie, awesome video as always 🥦🍎🥬. Does it matter what kind of paper you use? Such as junk mail? Or cardboard boxes? 🤓
Welcome sign on tote: 🪱Free worm lodge and buffet! 🪱
Thank you for making this so simple. I have watched many of your videos and used your tips! I am tired of buying soil. I could have had a ton if "the light bulb had gone off" months ago!! Well, no time like the present to stop throwing away food scraps and use it to make soil!! Cannot thank you enough. Just realized I am not subscribed! no time like the present to push that red button! :- D
Are worms able to get into grow bags?
I feed my raised beds annually to keep earth worms
Can the worms get to the thrid floor? I dont know if they can smell my stuff from the ground.can they climb walls?
Is there a reason why you don't plant the variety of cantaloupes in the 18 gallon totes?
Robbie, thank you for your encouragement! I have commented a few times under the name Cathy Jo. I changed my name to Baby Steps Garden. I have begun my tote garden. I am so excited! I have onions 3" high already! I am learning so much! I want to have a lot of plants, and yes, we will eat what we grow. 😊 I use to believe I could not have a garden because I have too much shade. Beets love shade! Cabbage will grow well there, also Swiss chard, Arugula, Kale and others. I use to believe I could not have a garden because my land is hilly. Not much of it is flat. Your totes are the answer. My dad, William, says "Where there is a will, there is a way, and my name's Will." well, My name's Will also, even if it is Cathy Jo!
Love you, and love your channel! ❤❤❤
Thanks for adding a short video. I look for these and I appreciate learning this way. Your videos are helpful and entertaining too. Im enjoying learning about gardening this way. Thank you!
Dumb question: is dryer lint good for anything in gardening? Thanks!
Thank you. I was wondering about how the earthworms travel up the chair and into the container garden : )
I don’t understand, my totes don’t have earthworms in them.
